Terrific! While most of us spend our time trying to AVOID eye contact with these guys, you are in his face!
Obviously, you gave---and got a super shot out of it!

Here is what I like about this (besides the technical aspects - good conversion): the communication in this photograph. The eye contact is perfect, and makes the photograph much stronger in my opinion. V

superb street portrait ! v
Guest 24-Aug-2011 08:18
Searing image that evokes many thoughts and feelings, all related to who, why, when, how. Struck by certain anomalies: an apparently clean polo shirt, a silky combed head of hair, untrimmed wiry mustache and beard, pants with fraying pocket, arm with small dark scabs, a face, so resigned, with slits for eyes, and a background that reeks of down and out. No answers, only questions and half formed thoughts and wonderings as you slip by, blotting him out.
